Athletistic / Soccer. Today, August 13, in St. Petersburg, as part of the fourth round of the RPL, local Zenit and Voronezh Fakel will meet. The match is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. Moscow time, don’t miss it!
Athletistic will broadcast the text of the match live online: RPL. “Zenith” – “Torch”. Direct
Today, we expect the match of the two losers from the start of the season. At the start, Zenit only had one win over Pari NN and a draw with Rostov. Fakel hasn’t scored any points yet. Both teams are stormy, both teams display an indistinct game. This is especially the case with Zenith, who are in a fever after all the recent events with the star Legionnaires. Yes, Semak’s team has four points after three rounds, and it’s wrong to call them early season losers. But on the other hand, Zenit are the defending champions with ambitions for another trophy. Obviously, such a departure was not expected by all fans of the domestic football giant. For Fakel, it’s a chance. But it is also an opportunity for Zenit to improve its position in the standings and get closer to the top three. It will be interesting.
As for personal encounters. Last season, these teams met four times. Like everyone else, it’s two league matches and two cup matches. And you know, the stats here are completely behind Zenit. ‘Torch’ only managed to draw once in a home game in the Premier League. In other matches, Zenit proved to be stronger. Let’s see what happens this time.
Both teams are desperate for points. Fakel is still the only team in the championship with zero points in the column. Zenit must get back into the title race before the gap becomes too big. We wish good luck to both teams. And may the best win !
